Open quantum walks (OQWs) (also known as open quantum random walks) are quantum analogs of classical Markov chains in probability theory, and have potential application in quantum information and quantum computation. Quantum Bernoulli noises (QBNs) are annihilation and creation operators acting on Bernoulli functionals, and can be used as the environment of an open quantum system. In this paper, by using QBNs as the environment, we introduce an OQW on a general higher-dimensional integer lattice. We obtain a quantum channel representation of the walk, which shows that the walk is indeed an OQW. We prove that all the states of the walk are separable provided its initial state is separable. We also prove that, for some initial states, the walk has a limit probability distribution of higher-dimensional Gauss type. Finally, we show links between the walk and a unitary quantum walk recently introduced in terms of QBNs.

It has been discovered that open quantum walks diffusively distribute in space, since they were introduced in 2012. Indeed, some limit distributions have been demonstrated and most of them are described by Gaussian distributions. We operate an open quantum walk on [Formula: see text] with parameterized operations in this paper, and study its 1st and 2nd moments so that we find its standard deviation. The standard deviation tells us whether the open quantum walker shows diffusive or ballistic behavior, which results in a phase transition of the walker.

In this work, we study open quantum random walks, as described by S. Attal et al.. These objects are given in terms of completely positive maps acting on trace-class operators, leading to one of the simplest open quantum versions of the recurrence problem for classical, discrete-time random walks. This work focuses on obtaining criteria for site recurrence of nearest-neighbor, homogeneous walks on the integer line, with the description presented here making use of recent results of the theory of open walks, most particularly regarding reducibility properties of the operators involved. This allows us to obtain a complete criterion for site recurrence in the case for which the internal degree of freedom of each site (coin space) is of dimension 2. We also present the analogous result for irreducible walks with an internal degree of arbitrary finite dimension and the absorption problem for walks on the semi-infinite line.
